I am aware of these experiments but if its going to get past skeptical environmentalists and actually get implimented as a global plan we probably need bigger longer term experiments.

And no, capping CO2 emissions wouldn't be all that expensive if combined with measures like above.

I don't think that CO2 reduction measures count against the cap reduction under Kyoto. If they do and you can emit X (your current limit) + Y (whatever amount of CO2 you can take out of the air by methods like fertilizing phyto-plankton), rather then just X, then it might be possible to actually deal with limits on a more cost effective basis. There still will be a negative impact but it might be much smaller.
